Enan has been walking with Lanua today; his leg seems to have healed already. I'm glad of that. Since he doesn't need carrying any more I have been able to jump through the trees again.
I was going to write the story about Kraet the Seer as I said I would do when not much happens in our journey, but instead I thought I would write about the shadows. I know it doesn't sound like something that would be very interesting, but it has had me confused ever since I noticed it this afternoon. The shadows don't seem to be in the right places. I can see the sun shining in the sky, and I can see the trees all around me, and I can see their shadows, but somehow - I'm not sure how to explain it - it almost seems like there are too many shadows. It's hard to tell in a forest with so many things blocking the light, but after living in one for my whole life I feel like I should trust my senses when they tell me that something is wrong with the woods. Lanua said she hadn't noticed anything, but Enan has been sniffing around at pieces of ground that didn't seem to have anything special about them.
It is dark now, so the only shadows are those cast by the eye-staff. They all seem to be in order, but I can't shake the feeling that something is wrong with Adramalech. With this and the return of the Ice Elementals to the area around Old Traders' Village, ideas of a world wide event have crossed my mind. Is it all connected?
